I am a lover of cat poems and stories and felt that it
was about time that Our Happy Cat.Com had a dedicated area to celebrate
this wonderful medium.
Visitors to the site can now enjoy a wealth of wonderful
poems and stories both original and classic submitted by other cat lovers
and writers.
I know many or you like to write your own cat poems and stories and
some are even professional writers, I thought that it was a shame not
to allow you to share some of your work with our other visitors to the
site.
So if you have poems and stories you would like to share with the rest
of us please send them to us. I can't wait to see just how creative
you all are.
Just to get things started i would like to share one
of my favourite cat poems with you all.
He's outwardly respectable. (They say he cheats at cards.)
And his footprints are not found in any file of Scotland Yard's.
And when the larder's looted, or the jewel-case is rifled,
Or when the milk is missing, or another Peke's been stifled,
Or the greenhouse glass is broken, and the trellis past repair -
Ay, there's the wonder of the thing! Macavity's not there!
Do you have your own cat poem or story to share with the rest of us? Great, simply submit it below and soon other vistors to the site the world over and can be reading it in no time.
